Air Dolomiti lifted arriving flights to 4,778 in August 2025, reflecting +17.95% versus last year. Demand strengthened on leisure flows between northern Italy and southern Germany during late‑summer holidays, and corporate itineraries continued to rebuild across Germany–Italy city pairs. Added rotations on core routes increased seat supply and schedule choice, supporting the carrier’s role as a feeder within the broader European network.

Punctuality improved as calmer weather across the Alpine corridor and more predictable air traffic flow reduced airborne and taxi delays. Ground operations emphasized tighter turn times, pre‑positioned spares, and proactive maintenance planning to prevent knock‑on disruptions. The airline also deployed reserve crews and refined day‑of‑operations control, which helped contain cancellations and stabilize arrival performance.

Key Hubs

Munich and Frankfurt function as primary connection points, channeling traffic from Verona, Venice, Florence and other Italian cities into long‑haul and intra‑Europe banks. Morning and late‑afternoon waves are timed for short connection windows while protecting minimum connection times for travelers with checked baggage. This structure concentrates demand into well‑covered time banks and supports resilient recoveries when irregular operations occur.

Outlook

For travelers, Air Dolomiti currently combines solid punctuality with a lean schedule focused on reliable connections. Passengers planning August and early‑autumn itineraries can expect on‑time performance to remain elevated, with targeted adjustments on routes showing sustained demand. Consider booking itineraries that use the main banks in Munich or Frankfurt for smoother transfers, and allow extra time during peak holiday returns or potential fog events in northern Italy and southern Germany.
